Configuring your Lever-hosted job site

To configure your Lever-hosted job site, click your avatar in the top-right corner of the platform header, select Settings from the menu, and click 'Job site' in the left-side navigation. Note that as you make any changes to the configuration of your job site, you must click the Save Changes button at the top of the Job site settings page in order to apply those changes.

Setup

From the 'Setup' tab on the Job site page, you can configure the following settings:

General settings

Under the 'General' heading, define the organization name and URLs associated with your job site as follows:

• Company name - appears in the title tab of your job site as well as at the bottom of each page of your job site; will also appear in the {{Company}} auto-text token if you chose to enable automatic confirmation emails for applicants
• Company website - the URL to your company's homepage; appears at the bottom of each page of your job site
• Redirect URL - if an applicant clicks the Return to main page button after submitting an application or your organization's logo on your job site, they will be directed to this URL
• Application Success Page URL - applicants will be directed to this URL after successfully submitting an application on your job site

Under this heading you can also find your external and internal job site URLs. Click these links to preview how your job site looks to applicants. If you wish to enable/disable your internal Lever-hosted job site, click the Edit button next to the internal job site URL, and select the option to either enable or disable the site in the modal that appears.

Tracking

Use the Google Analytics tracking ID to measure traffic to your Lever-hosted job site. This ID can be copied into the Admin console of your organization's Google Analytics instance by a Google Administrator. For more information on how to add the tracking ID to Google Analytics, refer to Google's help article on how to set up Analytics for a website. Note that your ability to accurately measure traffic is impacted by the cookie settings configured in the company-level settings of your Lever environment (Settings > Company > Compliance).

If your organization is working with a third-party that has provided tracking pixels to track conversion rates, you can embed up to ten of those pixels on your Lever-hosted job site (provided they are image tracking pixels - i.e. not pixels for scripts or iframes). Embedded tracking pixels will fire every time the confirmation page is loaded following the successful submission of an application. For more details, refer to our help article on embedding tracking pixels.

Application form

From the 'Application' tab on the Job site page, you can review the personal information questions built-in to your site's application form. This includes standard questions, pronouns, link questions, and custom application questions. View full instructions for configuring your Application form and custom application questions in our help article on configuring your Lever application form. 

Preferred Location

A preferred location question will automatically be added to all multi-location postings. Learn about multi-location configuration in our help article on creating and managing multi location job postings. You can configure this question in the Multiple location postings section.

• Make the question mandatory or not mandatory by clicking the asterisk (*) on the right.
• Click into the preferred location text box to update the question text. If you don't update the question text, the default preferred location question will be displayed.

When submitting the application form, applicants will choose a preferred location from a dropdown list. 

Posting templates

You can create job posting templates from the 'Posting Templates' tab on the Job site page. These can be used when creating new job postings allowing for more consistency across opening and closing paragraphs, job descriptions, salary ranges, and application questions. Use these templated paragraphs to communicate a clear and consistent mission to applicants across postings, while also making the posting creation process more efficient for recruiters and hiring managers. For more information, refer to our help article on creating and using job posting templates. 

Posting configurations

From the 'Posting configurations' tab on the Job site page, you can allow secondary locations to postings, manage block repeat applications, and configure confirmation emails for applicants. 

Secondary locations field

When this setting is enabled, postings can be configured with a ‘Primary location’ field and ‘Secondary locations’ fields. To learn more about multi-location postings, refer to our help article on creating and managing multi-location postings. To enable this setting, move the toggle to the 'on' position. 

Block repeat applications

When the 'Block repeat applications' setting is enabled, candidates will be prevented from reapplying to the same job within the timeframe that you define. To enable this setting, move the toggle to the 'on' position.

Select a waiting period from the dropdown menu.

Applicants attempting to reapply to a posting to which they have already applied (within the timeframe) will be provided with a notice that their application has already been submitted, and advised of the timeframe after which they can reapply.

Note that this setting will only block candidates from reapplying within the timeframe if they are attempting to reapply via the same Lever-hosted application page. Applicants will not be blocked from applying to different postings within the timeframe. For full details on this feature, refer to our help article on blocking repeat applicants.

Configuring confirmation emails

Internal and external applicants can be automatically be sent emails after applying to a published job posting on your external or internal job site.

To enable the confirmation email, navigate to the 'Confirmation email' section and move the toggle to the 'on' position.

• Turn the toggles on under 'External applicants' and/or 'Internal applicants'

Use the email editor to craft a templated emails for internal and/or external applicants, which you can personalize using auto-text tokens. For more information on using auto-text tokens, refer to our help article on using auto-text tokens in emails. Please note that confirmation emails do not appear in the email section of opportunity profiles.

Logos/style

From the 'Logos/Style' tab on your Job site page, you can tailor the aesthetics of your Lever-hosted job site to reflect your organization's brand.

For more best practices, refer to our guidelines on logo formatting and sizing.

Styling

Customize the color of the buttons on your job site by opening the 'Button color' menu and selecting a color or inputting the hex code for a specific color that matches your organization's brand. We recommend consulting with your organization's design team to get advice on which color to select and/or specific hex codes from your organization's brand kit.
